Big onion--1 Nochopped

Green chilly--2 nos

Ginger --1 inch piece chopped into small pieces

Coconut oil--1 tsp

Method

Cook crab in 1 cup of water for 15 minutes in an Earthen pot or any vessels (I prefer to prepare fish items in earthen pots because it gives a different fragrance and taste to the preparation).For masala grind grated coconut and red chillies into fine paste.Add this paste to the cooked crab and boil it for 5 minutes.Mix the onion, green chilly and ginger with salt thoroughlyand add to the boiling crab mixture and cook for 5 minutes.Switch off the gas add one tsp of coconut oil on top of it.

About Me

cooking is my passion--started cooking at an early age, learnt many old konkani recipes from my mother and Aunty. Now i am experimenting traditional konkani recipes----this is my small effort to introduce and popularise the mouth-watering spicy-hot, nutritious, rich and healthy Konkani dishes to the world.I will also share some of the recipes which are non Konkani traditional food. I have learnt them from different people, books, watching different TV programs, internet etc due to my interest in cooking
